Bought Vi and started jungling on her. Every single game I do good regardless of my team and if I get fed from ganks I can nuke peope so fast. | ||

These include AM's 40% magic resistance and 5 second blink CD, Void's 35% chance to negate ANY source of damage, 35% bash chance and a huge AoE 5 second time-stop that lets only Void move. Yi's Q, W and E are nothing in comparison. Yi's kit simply isn't made to be an AD carry, it's just a bad kit. Tryndamere's kit is much more fluidly designed but even he has nothing on Dota carries. Another big reason is the existence of Manta style, Vanguard and most importantly BKB. This is definitely a factor, but personally I tend to believe that the farm advantage is the #1 aspect, and items/abilities fall around that as a secondary issue. It isnt just melee characters that have "broken" abilities in Dota, pretty much every ability in Dota, if carried over, would be broken in LoL. Same goes with items. So I tend to view item/ability factors as equalizing more than anything else. | ||

Literally, only after that would a true "carry" jungle be viable. That is just how this game works. No, thats not really the issue. The amount of gold in the jungle is such that it should be more than lane if you clear it well and take a small amount your lanes (seuss has blogged on it 1 2). If the jungle had equal or greater farm than lane then junglers would have access to far more farm than a laner because they can move around and be allocated farm from lanes. The issues are the the obvious complete lack of lane support, running smite on a carry, machete being wasted cost, and the fact that all the decently fast junglers are melee and all the problems that come with melee carrying. | ||

So if we wanna test that concept we just have to test jungle Tryndamere. Sounds legit? That would require someone to play Tryndamere, and several others to be in the same game as him. I lodge a formal protest on moral grounds. | ||

Nobody like that exists, though. Tryndamere is too weak overall and has no way of fighting CC. Tryndolafamere R: Undying Ragnarok Immune to all CC and damage for 5s | ||

He has all the tools a melee carry needs (sick steroids, good base stats, mobility, durability, scales exceptionally well) | ||

what's the point of having a "carry" jungler? Just pick a jungle champ and put him in the solo lane. Boom, instant carry jungler (Hecarim, Nocturne). | ||

if jungler ever ganks your lane, it's an instant kill played two games of so far, and both have been 20 minute surrenders for the enemy team it's unstoppable imo | ||

I still think boots of swiftness and zephyr would be a core item on him. | ||

Like a year ago he actually was viable in competitive play and saw some play in top lane. He was even fotm for awhile in solo queue iirc. Pre Q heal and Wriggles nerf, oh god the sustain was so stupid, #1 ban in yoloQ | ||
